Sudeley Castle ECW weekend

 Introducing our first ever Civil War Weekend

On Saturday 15th and 16th August, Sudeey visitors can step into one of the most turbulent chapters in the castle’s history as our Civil War Weekend brings the past dramatically back to life.

Across the weekend there will be:

A Civil War skirmish in the Hop Field

Pike drills accompanied by drummers

A living-history village on the Mulberry Lawn

Period medics, cooking and traditional daily life

Civil War-inspired specials in the Pavilion café

Sudeley once stood at the heart of Royalist operations in Gloucestershire, and the scars of the conflict can still be seen on the Castle walls.

Civil War Weekend activities are all included within the price of general admission on Saturday 15th and Sunday 16th August.

Come and experience it all with us!

French drill at St Malo recently

 At Fort de Petit Bé two Compagnies franches de la Marine units, one the le Lys sous l'Erable, based in France, and the other Garnison de Quebec, from Canada.

These legendary riders 18. for the century they were both the fear of the enemy and the pride of the Habsburg army. They were the eyes and ears of the imperial army. Brave, fast and always where there was greatest danger, they set out to explore, raided enemy patrols, protected their own army and pursued the retreating enemies. . Their bravery and horsemanship were written not only in military history, but also in folk songs, that still remind the famous Hussar times.
